[30 / 5 / 20]
Why are camera companies' naming conventions so retarded?>Sony Mixes A, α, R, S, roman numerals, and arabic numerals with no apparent logic, the α1 is better than the α7 but the A6500 is better than the A6000>Fuji XF, X100S/F/V, X-H, X-T, X-S, X-Pro, X-E, X-A, GFX, s, 30 is worse than 3>Canon APSC and FF in the same fucking series, can never tell whether the higher or lower number is supposed to be better>Nikon Fairly consistent and logical, but why does Z start at 5 and skip 8?>Panasonic Series are called S and G, but cameras get cryptic names like DC-S5M2X and DC-GH5M2M>Olympus Oh boy>Leica This is how you do it

>>4138415 single digit series are usually flagships, the odd one is Sony with the inconsistencies you pointed out
with Canon single digit, lower is higher end, with 2 and 3 digits lower is older and more digits=lower end for the most part
exceptions being the 100D and similar

>>4138415 How often do you have to buy cameras for this to affect you? Once a week?
They last over 30 fucking years, at least, and with 42mp full frame cameras you have more resolution than drum scanned 6x7 film, which is far more than anyone ever wanted except for the absolute largest prints. Or you could buy a fuji GFX100s and mog all 3 people that shoot 4x5 and continue mogging them for decades.

>>4140311 Confirmed: The GFX100s is inferior to the XT5.
APS-C is better. Fool frame and medium-dick format fags, you're losing the war. Look at the pictures. X-trans APS-C looks BETTER. Pixel peeping doesn't count because reality isn't made of pixels.
XT5 wins. It has the best ergonomics most like a real camera. It has the best sensor. It takes pictures that look like film AKA real photographs. It's OVER, snoy boys. You LOSE.

>>4141266 Zeiss started naming its lenses after bird genera at some point
I always thought that they started with birds of prey because they have excellent eyesight and then just continued with parrots and flycatchers when they ran out, but there's actually just four of these series in their line-up
The full list is
>Batis (flycatchers, APSC) >Loxia (crossbill finches, FF) >Milvus (true kites, FF) >Otus (scops owls, FF) >Touit (parrots, APSC)
